Dog lover in the Bluegrass
Pet care experience
I'm often out walking my two dogs throughout Kenwick, Fairwood, Ashland, & Chevy Chase. I'm retired after a 25 year career in the Army and Law Enforcement - dog walking lets me enjoy my flexible schedule and be of service to people and their dogs. I am an absolute dog lover. I am a volunteer at the humane society and have been actively engaged with dog rescue organizations for years. Getting started with Rover is yet another way for me to help dogs! For dog walking: I’ve been working with my own three dogs for 6+ years and I am very calm and patient working with dogs. I’ve gone through basic obedience training with each of my dogs and know that the training is as much for me as it is for them! I love remaining active and dog walking is a great way for me to stay active and keep your dog exercised and engaged! For pet check in services: I am available to play with, feed, clean up after your dog. I know that an engaged and tired dog is a good dog.
Reviews
Mike is great with Rex! He takes excellent care of Rex and goes out of his way to be helpful. He is great at providing updates and letting you know how your pup is doing!
Mike is a really amazing guy, such an animal lover! His own dogs love going for nice long walks all over town and I’m sure any pups he cared for would have a blast with him! In addition, this man fears no weather, haha! Call Mike, he’s the best!
Mike is a dog fanatic. He is calm, patient, and a strong leader which makes him an ideal dog walker. He has worked with many dogs in different capacities over the years both personally and on a volunteer basis. Beyond that, he is reliable, kind, and trustworthy. A great companion to care for your companion.

I am a retired veteran and former law enforcement employee who has passed at least half a dozen different background checks. I take great care of your dog and your home so you can have peace of mind.
Information Michael P. would like to know about your pet
I do not have any breed preferences and I am absolutely comfortable around larger dogs and bully breeds. I am flexible in taking care of your dog based on your instructions and guidance.
A typical day
I enjoy taking dogs out for long walks to give them both their needed mental and physical stimulation. I know and understand that walking a dog is more than just a potty break, it’s a chance for them to get outside and explore.
